There is a link to an article on the FB page. The print is small on a phone but it does mention George on page 5/8 or 41 of the actual article. There are quite a few missing people from this location. The terrain sounds pretty rough.

"The case of another avid hunter, George Bombardier, remains one of the park’s longest running unsolved disappearances. He vanished in November 1971 near Paul Smiths (not long after the disappearance of eight-year-old Douglas Legg from a family camp outside Newcomb, which also remains unsolved). The night before the search began, longtime forest ranger Gary Hodgson recalled, it snowed more than a foot. “We found some
snowed-in tracks but nobody knew whose they were.”

Bumping for George as we approach the 49th anniversary of his disappearance.

I'm a brand new member and I'm not too internet savvy. I've been exploring Hayes brook area and Debar wilderness for over two decades. Several years back, maybe five or so, I learned about George Bombardier. Since then I try to get those days off and I'll go up on the 29th and hike in to hunt and spend the night. Usually I camp on the ground after bushwacking off trail a ways. I have several small campsites and over the last two decades have discovered unmarked ponds, bogs, and evidence of very old hunting camps. I've probably spent over a hundred nights in this forest and it is easy to get turned around. It is also full of black bear and hosts a population of moose. I'll head up this Sunday, the 29th, because that's when George went. And I'll spend the night, because he did as well. I'm not sure what happened to him and probably never will but every year I try to give him some company in a forest that I've come to love.
